What Sets Dobermans Apart?
While all dogs are individuals with their own personalities and dispositions, many Dobermans share a few key traits. Those who know and love Dobermans appreciate their loyal nature. Often referred to as “velcro dogs,” Dobermans are devoted to their owners and will often follow their chosen humans throughout the house.
When trained correctly, Dobermans are incredibly obedient and protective. Intelligent and motivated to please, Dobermans were historically bred as work dogs and still make excellent therapy companions. Dobermans also tend to be energetic and need plenty of enrichment and attention.

Why Train Dobermans?
Dobermans have the potential to be incredible companions and content family dogs with the correct training and attention. Dobermans are eager to please and can help protect and keep you company. On the other hand, their energetic nature and high intelligence can also lead to destructive behavior without proper enrichment and direction. They are also large and powerful dogs that can easily become dangerous without guidance, just as all breeds can.
Dobermans thrive with enrichment and direction, and it is always safest to have a well-trained dog. Your dog, family, and community are best served by thorough Doberman training in Los Angeles, CA and ongoing exercise and enrichment. Having the peace of mind that your dog will obey your directions no matter the environment and circumstances is the best way to keep everyone safe.
When it comes to dog training, earlier is always better, but that’s not to say that older dogs cannot or should not be trained. Especially with such an intelligent dog breed, training at any age is an excellent choice. Other signs that it’s time to start training include aggression toward other dogs or people, anxiety in public spaces, or poor recall.

Our Doberman training program will cover the following commands and training milestones:
- Crate training and house breaking
- Socialization
- Problem behavior correction
- Impulse control
- Heel and leash etiquette
- Basic obedience commands like come, sit, stay, place and more
Our Balanced Theory
We base our training around the "Classical Conditioning" model (a.k.a. "Pavlovian" or "respondent conditioning"). This includes developing conditioned or automatic reflexes to commands. In its simplest form (after proper conditioning), when the owner says "sit," the dog automatically sits without thinking about it. Our unique techniques ensure our program is a success no matter what behavior we encounter.

If you're struggling with leash-pulling, look no further. Dog Training Elite doesn't just train dogs, they educate owners! I spoke on the phone with the owner Jon, to learn a bit about the services they offered and was able to schedule an in-home session the following week. Clayton was the trainer that came to our home and our dog went from a pulling machine to a perfect walking companion in a single session. He also empowered us with the knowledge and skills to continue the training journey. We appreciate this personalized approach and commitment to our dog's long-term success.Thank you Jon, Clayton, and Dog Training Elite!— Cindy Q

My Clyde is a timid 9 year old rescue dog. Dog Training Elite showed me you can teach an old dog new tricks. After trying to train her for over a year, I came to realize this was beyond my capabilities. I am so grateful for Jon and Dog Training Elite. He was beyond patient. Not only he trained my dog but also took the time to train me, which was probably even more difficult. I love that they come to you and teach you in your home. Now I get compliments when I take him to places as he is very well behaved. Well worth every penny spent.— Camille Archibald

I recently had the pleasure of working with Jon to improve the walking experience with my dogs, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Before his guidance, walking my dogs was a constant struggle, with each pulling in different directions and becoming easily distracted by every scent and object on the ground. Jon was incredibly patient and knowledgeable, demonstrating effective techniques to make our walks more enjoyable for both me and my dogs. His gentle approach and clear communication style made the training sessions productive and enjoyable. What impressed me the most was Jon's professionalism and dedication to his craft. He took the time to understand my dogs' unique behaviors and tailored his methods to suit their needs. His genuine love for animals was evident in every interaction, and my dogs responded positively to his guidance. Thanks to Jon, walking my dogs has become a pleasurable experience rather than a dreaded chore. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of professional dog training.— Gillian Bigelson
